HEMINGWAY, Marian – born July 15, 1929 in Brierley, England. She passed away on January 9, 2024 in Goderich, Ontario at the age of 94. She married Albert Hemingway in 1950 and together they immigrated to Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada in 1951 and later moved to Elliot Lake, Ontario in 1959. Predeceased by her husband Albert in 2014. Loving mother to Alan Hemingway (Karen-Anne), John Hemingway and Joan Greer (Lance). Proud grandmother to Marie (Keith), Kathleen (Chris), Lance (Erin), David (Erica), Alan (Meghan), Francine (John) and great grandmother to 18. Beloved aunt to numerous nieces and nephews in England. Marian made the move to Goderich in 2020 to be closer to her family. Marian was a talented seamstress and assisted her husband Albert in their home upholstery business from 1951-1998. She was a lifelong member of the Legion (first in Elliot Lake and then in Goderich) and fulfilled many roles including President and Vice-President of the Ladies Auxiliary and Sports Chair. She enjoyed participating in bowling, darts, cards, shuffle board and curling. During her almost 64-year marriage, many people remarked on Marian and Albert’s amazing dancing skills. Marian was much loved and will be missed by family and friends. Rest in Peace.

So many precious memories of a very special Aunt. There may have been many miles between us but visits from Canada to Barnsley (UK) and UK to Canada to visit family will always remain in our hearts. One of my favourite pics is this one when I
paid a surprise visit to Aunty Marian and Uncle Albert for their wedding anniversary party. Heaven gained another angel. xx
